Matrix portal s3 shifting sand 🔀📲📅⏳💔🔄🔌💡🏜️🆕
We're slowly but surely trying to de-SAMD51'ify our product line since that chip has a 2024 ETA. a bummer because we really loved that chip but it's probably a good time to transition since it can be a year until we get some and even then, the dates have been pushed multiple times. so, first up is the matrix portal m4 https://www.adafruit.com/product/4745 ! instead of a samd51 + esp32, we've got a version with ESP32-S3 WROOM which has 8MB of flash, and 2MB of PSRAM. the S3 has a nice peripheral that can be used to drive these matricies very fast, and the 2 MB of PSRAM will make this possible to drive lots of panels! we kept the same outline shape and functionality, including the built in accelerometer, which makes this LED sand demo a quick port.

EyeSpi for a Pi on the 4th of July 🎆🔌🖥️👀🥧🔬🛠️🔄🤖💡
we're always plugging stuff into our raspberry pi to make little demos and we finally decided to make an open-source hardware quick-connecting accessory for any Pi or single board linux computer with pi-compatible 2x20 header. this slim board adds two tactile buttons on gpio 5 and 6, a slide switch on gpio 13, and both EYESPI https://www.adafruit.com/search?q=eyespi and Stemma QT ports https://learn.adafruit.com/introducing-adafruit-stemma-qt for attaching displays, E-Inks, or I2C devices with no soldering required. here we have a 2.0" ST7789 display https://www.adafruit.com/product/4311 connected up and running our GIF player demo https://learn.adafruit.com/pitft-linux-python-animated-gif-player this board will probably live on our Pi full time for fast prototyping goodness, and of course, once we're done testing all the GPIO we'll also put it into the shop.

A CSI or DSI switcheroo-ifier 📷🔌🔄🕹️🔬🔎📡💻👥🛠️
On the Pi Compute IO board and Pi Zeros theres a camera connector that is 22 pins and 0.5mm pitch, whereas the classic Pi's use 15-pin 1mm pitch. what if you want to switch between the two? this lil open-source hardware doo-dad will do it. here we're testing it by connecting a Pi 3 to a 'mini spy camera' modules that would normally go right onto a Pi Zero https://www.adafruit.com/search?q=spy+camera and it works! we're going to also try it the other direction, and then order the PCBs & boards.

Final shield test for a Metro-shaped RP2040 🔬🚇🛠️🔌📲💾🚀📈✅🏭
We're testing out prototypes of a new Metro https://www.adafruit.com/search?q=metro RP2040 https://www.adafruit.com/search?q=rp2040 , while the 'classic Arduino shape' is not as popular these days with dev boards as it used to be, we like the roomy layout, with lots of socket headers, and plenty of space for accessories like a MicroSD card socket with both SPI and SDIO pinout, SWD debug port, Stemma QT, and 12V DC power port. our last test is always to plug in our 2.8" captouch TFT shield https://www.adafruit.com/product/1947 because it tests both SPI and I2C. this passes and since all the GPIO are accounted for, we just have to wrap up the silk and it's off to fabrication!

"I guess I just miss my friend" - The Shawshank Redemption, Teddy Ruxpin edition by Adafruit
"I guess I just miss my friend" - The Shawshank Redemption, Teddy Ruxpin edition by Adafruit - this is the hacked Teddy Ruxpin we made for our kiddo that allows custom audio, new mouth movements synced with the audio, custom/new eye movements and more. This is the 2017 Teddy Ruxpin that on launch was $100 to $200, the company quickly went out of business and there are tons of these bears for less than $20 on eBay - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teddy_Ruxpin?useskin=vector#Wicked_Cool_Toys Guide and more coming soon. The Shawshank Redemption (1995) Tim Robbins and Morgan Freeman star in a compelling drama of hope, friendship and atonement behind the walls of a maximum security prison in The Shawshank Redemption. From a novella by best-selling author Stephen King comes a poignant tale of the human spirit. Red (Freeman), serving a life sentence, and Andy Dufresne (Robbins), a mild-mannered banker wrongly convicted of murder, forge an unlikely bond that will span more than twenty years. Together they discover hope as the ultimate means of survival. Under horrifying conditions and the ever-present threat of violence, two lifers reclaim their souls and find freedom within their hearts in The Shawshank Redemption. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0111161/ Visit the Adafruit shop online - http://www.adafruit.com ----------------------------------------- LIVE CHAT IS HERE! http://adafru.it/discord Adafruit on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/adafruit Subscribe to Adafruit on YouTube: http://adafru.it/subscribe New tutorials on the Adafruit Learning System: http://learn.adafruit.com/ -----------------------------------------

Super Mario Magic Wand 3dprinting
Build a Magikoopa Wand with Adafruit’s New RP2040 PropMaker Feather. Guide: https://learn.adafruit.com/mario-magic-wand We designed and 3D printed a magic wand inspired by the Super Mario Brothers movie. It’s got motion activated lights and sound with a spinning crystal gem. This new Feather is an all-in-one dev board that features an I2S amp, accelerometer, NeoPixel driver, Servo Header Pins, STEMMA QT and screw block terminals. It’s got the RP2040 chip with 8MB of SPI flash, 21 GPIO pins, and lipo battery charging over USB-C. With CircuitPython, the board acts like a USB drive so you can easily customize the code with just about any computer. You can modify the code to fit your project, just change the values such as the NeoPixel color, speed or the accelerometer threshold.

quad-rotary board is getting ready to stock 🔁🎛️💻🔄🔌
this seesaw board converts 4 rotary encoders to I2C for adding a ton of twists. like our other attiny8xx boards, we use a metro m0 to do the programming of the UPDI interface, then communicate over I2C to check each pin is not shorted or open. this will be in the shop soon so don't get your knickers in a twist! https://www.adafruit.com/product/5752 Visit the Adafruit shop online - http://www.adafruit.com ----------------------------------------- LIVE CHAT IS HERE! http://adafru.it/discord Adafruit on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/adafruit Subscribe to Adafruit on YouTube: http://adafru.it/subscribe New tutorials on the Adafruit Learning System: http://learn.adafruit.com/ ----------------------------------------- #adafruit #QuadRotaryBoard #I2C #RotaryEncoders #ATtiny8xx #MetroM0 #UPDI

Mini USB hub proto is a universal USB port expander 🔌💡🖥️📲🔄💻🎛️🧩
Sometimes you've got something with USB host, like a embedded linux board, and you want to connect more than one thing. or maybe you want to turn something like a keyboard into a multi-device USB peripheral. this usb hub board will do that for you! it features an SL2.1 USB 2.1 hub chip which converts one port into four. we have either 0.1" header or USB C for the upstream, and then 4 x 4-pin ports for peripheral connections. to test it out we're using our 'simple' USB-breakout cables https://www.adafruit.com/product/4449 that just give the 5V/D+/D-/GND pins on wires for quick testing. all is good, this is ready to order!

Yes! Stemma QT boards work with the Arduino UNO R4! 🎉🔌🛠️📡💡🌐
we just got our UNO R4 WiFi, featuring the Renesas RA4M1 series of chips https://blog.adafruit.com/2023/05/25/eye-on-npi-renesas-ra4m1-microcontroller-series-eyeonnpi-digikey-renesasglobal-digikey-adafruit/ an ESP32 wifi co-processor, an adorable LED grid, and a JST SH 4-pin connector...a.k.a a Qwiic port! Yay it is so great to see this connector becoming standardized on so many platforms. It means that all of our STEMMA QT devices https://www.adafruit.com/category/1018 will work plug-and-play. Here we're testing it with an OLED https://www.adafruit.com/product/938 and SHT41 breakout https://www.adafruit.com/search?q=sht4 we only had to update our demo to use Wire1 instead of Wire, since the secondary I2C bus is used for this connector.

What's better than ice cream? Re-visiting a mid-2020 design! ZED-F9P RTK board 🍦🔄🎯🛰️
nothing is as satisfying as a scoop mint chocolate-chip on a hot day...except maybe finishing a board design from 2020! this ZED-F9P is an RTK 'real time kinematics' board https://blog.adafruit.com/2020/06/08/eye-on-npi-u-blox-c099-f9p-application-board-for-zed-f9p-gnss-rtk-module-eyeonnpi-adafruit-digikey-digikey-ublox/ that can do high precision location. kinda like a GPS/GNSS but with centimeter accuracy. they're not cheap but there's really nothing else that works as well. these are modules from uBlox and they're finally in good supply at DigiKey https://www.digikey.com/short/8v5rjw15 . our shield design is nice and spacious and would be a great fit for a Metro ESP32-S2 https://www.adafruit.com/product/4775 which has DC, USB and LiPoly input. we'll be sending out for prototype PCBs this week!

The Great Search: 5.5mm / 2.1mm DC Power Jack
For our new Metro RP2040 design, we're making sure that the board can be powered by either USB Type C 5V, or DC wall adapters. While it's common to have 5V USB power almost everywhere, DC power is still useful for when you want 12V to also drive a motor or LED strip. In such cases, we'll use a 5.5 / 2.1mm DC jack to allow the most-common-sized plugs to work. These jacks come in a few common configurations, and have different power ratings and usage cases - even though they all look the same! We'll find a few good options and chat about what to look out for. See the chosen part on DigiKey https://www.digikey.com/short/bwwn4pvt Visit the Adafruit shop online - http://www.adafruit.com

The Great Search: 3.3V Buck-Boost Converter
Buck-Boost Converters are power supplies that are 'ambidextrous' - they can convert lower or higher voltages to one steady output. A good idea for if, say, you have something that could be powered by USB or two AA's but you want 3.3V output. Much like the name implies, they can both 'buck' the voltage down, and 'boost' the voltage up. For our Toy Hacker board, let's try to find a low cost buck-boost chip that will give us about 500mA of 3.3V output even from two nearly-dead AA batteries that are 0.9V. We want something somewhat small and fairly inexpensive, efficiency isn't the most important since we expect folks to use rechargeable AAs anyhow.

Is this the first Python-enabled baby toy? Plays Taylor Swift - You Need To Calm Down :) 👶🐍🎲🎵👩🎤💻📡🔧🔩
This week we got the prototypes for our 'Toy Hacker' board that replaces the innard of a Baby Einstein take-along-tunes toy with our own tronix. we picked the esp32-s2 as a main core because it has wifi baked in, perfect for when you have a device that is fully enclosed like this one! using the CircuitPython WiFi workflow, we configured the wifi credentials and access password in settings.toml and it pops up on our network. now we can edit code, move files around, etc, without having to undo all those lil screws. This may very well be the first python powered baby toy!

EYE ON NPI - Texas Instruments BQ27427 System-Side Impedance Track™ Single-Cell Battery Fuel Gauge
This week's EYE ON NPI is going to fuel up your portable battery-powered designs with the Texas Instruments BQ27427 System-Side Impedance Track™ Single-Cell Battery Fuel Gauge (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/t/texas-instruments/bq27427-single-cell-battery-fuel-gauge) a powerful and inexpensive way to add high quality battery monitoring for charge-rate and aging tracking at the system side. Lithium Ion / Polymer batteries (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/filter/batteries-rechargeable-secondary/91) - you love them for their low cost, high power density, and 3.7V nominal voltage, but keeping them recharged and letting people know exactly how much battery life is left is non-trivial. Like most batteries, common LiPoly/LiIon's start with a high peak voltage right after charging of about 4.2V, drop quickly to about 3.7V and then slowly drift down till they get to 3.0V at which point the cut-off circuitry disconnects until they are recharged. It's really easy to tell when the battery is 90% or greater charge, just look for a voltage of 3.9V or higher. It's also pretty easy to tell when they're 10% or less, the voltage will be 3.3V or lower. But that in-between section is tough because the slope during discharge is very shallow and the voltage changes quite a bit with aging, temperature, and discharge rate (https://www.ti.com/lit/an/snva533/snva533.pdf) So while there are battery monitors that can use just the voltage across the battery terminals, they're not going to be as precise as a coulomb-counter design that takes into account both voltage and current. From TI's White Paper on the topic (https://www.ti.com/lit/wp/slpy002/slpy002.pdf): "An impedance-based battery fuel gauge, as the name implies, uses the measured impedance of the battery’s cells as a key input to its remaining capacity predictions. The gauge measures and stores in real-time the battery pack’s resistance as a function of state-of-charge. The real-time resistance profiles along with the stored battery open-circuit voltage tables (open-circuit voltage vs. state-of-charge) enables the gauge to predict the battery pack’s discharge curve (by adjusting for the IR drop) under any system-use condition and temperature. The algorithm uses current integration (coulomb counting) when the system is ON, and open-circuit voltage measurement when the system is OFF or in SLEEP to adjust remaining state-of-charge (RSOC) up or down (for charge or discharge) the predicted discharge curve. By using the predicated discharge curve, the gauge can accurately calculate the battery pack’s remaining discharge capacity (RM) and the system’s run-time to empty (RTTE). Since an impedance track gauge continuously adjusts RM and FCC for impedance and the change in impedance, rate and temperature inefficiencies and aging are inherently taken into account, enabling the gauge to maintain a high level of accuracy throughout the life of the system." Texas Instruments has a few chips in the Impedance Track family (https://www.ti.com/video/6287050244001) - the BQ27427 charger (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/texas-instruments/BQ27427YZFR/17748369) is the latest to come out. It's very small, coming as a 9-pin 1.6x1.6 BGA with the center pad being a shared ground so you don't need plugged vias to use. It's also really easy to use, requiring only 2 small stabilization capacitors. Internal temperature monitoring means you don't need a separate thermistor. The high-side 7 mΩ current sense resistor also means one less part on the BOM. I2C pins are used to communicate with the monitor and set battery characteristics. There's also an optional input that can be used to connect to a mechanical or electrical battery insertion switch or to an external thermistor, and an optional output that can be used as a battery low indicator. Because so much is integrated, and the chip is so small, its very easy to pop it into your design between the battery terminal and the VBAT lines that go to your battery charger and power supply. The peak battery voltage and capacity are easy to look up since they're written on the battery. For other configuration settings you can use BQStudio / GaugeStudio (https://www.ti.com/tool/BQSTUDIO) with the TI battery devboard to characterize and customize the learning cycle. Either way, you will need to write the configuration to the sensor on every boot. Pick up the Texas Instruments BQ27427 (https://www.digikey.com/short/18pb1ftw) and other chips from the Impedance Track family (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/result?s=N4IgjCBcoLQCxVAYygMwIYBsDOBTANCAG4B2aWehA9lANrhwCsAnBALqEAOALlCCAF8hQA0) stocked at DigiKey for immediate shipment. Order today and you'll get precision lipoly monitoring that will work with any setup or battery configuration by tomorrow afternoon!

The Great Search: Disc Piezo Buzzer Element
This week on the Great Search, we're taking apart a McDonalds McNugget Tetris game (https://tetris.wiki/Tetris_(McDonald%27s)) given away in China for the 40th anniversary of the chicken mcnugget. Unsurprisingly, it's an epoxy blob'd chip that does just about everything! For the background music, a disc piezo is used to make the beeps. We've covered magnetic buzzers before (https://blog.adafruit.com/2020/11/24/the-great-search-piezo-and-magnetic-buzzers-thegreatsearch-digikey-digikey-adafruit/) on the Great Search, which we use on some of our design for SMT tone-making. At a 500K build, budget is going to be the most important concern, so instead, we can go for a ultra low cost piezo disc! Let's take a look at what is available at DigiKey and the differences between magnetic and piezo buzzers. See the chosen part on DigiKey https://www.digikey.com/short/dtbmq7jm

Jellyfish Umbrella LED Festival Locator with WLED
Full tutorial: https://learn.adafruit.com/jellyfish-umbrella-with-easy-wled-wifi-control/ Make a jellyfish umbrella with animated lights, with no coding required. This is an intermediate project that gives you advanced results. The software is simple to load and use. Hundreds of animations and color combinations are available right through your fingertips, using any web browser or the free WLED app on your phone. The trickiest part of this tutorial is the wiring. There are a lot of connections to make and some challenging soldering to do, but the rest of the build is fairly easy. Make your jellyfish dance and flow with lights, tentacles, and iridescence. This project would make a great camp "totem" for festivals, or a wonderful costume if it's built onto an umbrella hat. It's also easy to synch two or more jellyfish together over wifi using WLED.

swirly grid for mounting prototype boards
with most of our dev boards, sensors and feathers now sporting plug-and-play stemma QT ports (https://learn.adafruit.com/search?q=stemma%2520qt) it can be very fast to put together projects with half a dozen boards snapped together. But now you don't have a breadboard as a mechanical substrate... which is why jepler and scott collaborated on this nifty swirly grid design. originally 3D printed, we decided to upgrade these to an 'aluminum PCB' - note there's no actual copper on here, its just the aluminum backing, and then black soldermask with silkscreen. each square is 0.6 inch x 0.6 inch and there's holes every 0.2 inches. with the various dots and dashes you can pretty much make anything on a 0.1" grid fit. here's our demo to test it out. the aluminum is easy to cut/drill/machine/bend if you need more customization. coming soon to the adafruit shop!
